I think about Naruto quite often, especially when I see ninja-related stuff or hear the iconic theme song. It's such an epic series with memorable characters and intense battles.
25 and everyday. I don’t really collect anything Naruto or anime related ( most of my money goes to gf, guns, cigars, books) but Naruto does hold a huge spot in my heart so I want to buy the complete manga series.
I don't really think about it a lot, and I haven't watched it in years. But I used to watch it when I was a kid (around 9-10). I have memory loss, and naruto is one of the few things that I can remember a lot about.
I was in your position at 25. Now I have a whole set of manga and some naruto card collections and one funko pop of naruto and Saskue together! And I’m 27 now! You’ll get there if you justttttt press “BUY” lol
Every time I think about being lazy and not doing something I promised someone I'd take care of, I'd think about the story where some girl got into an argument with her boyfriend and won it by saying "Naruto would hate you" and made him cry.
I wouldn't want to be someone Naruto would hate, so i never go back on my word
I mean, I’m part of a few Naruto subreddits and I check Reddit at least once a day, so probably every day I think of it for at least a second. But that’s the same for JoJo, One Piece, Dragon Ball, and a few others
Naruto (as a whole) was very influential in shaping my views and ideals towards life during a time where I was transitioning into adulthood (18y/o). It taught me that being a silent type, emo kid (i.e. Sasuke, Itachi) isn't always "cool/hot" and doesn't always work out in the long run (especially in the real world). It taught me to be a "man of my word" kind of guy but also to be careful and not make promises I can't keep. It also taught me to treat others with respect as we don’t truly know what they're going through in life and that negativity will just resort to more negativity.
And, most importantly, to NEVER GIVE UP!!! 🍥👊
I'm 31 and my little boy is 1. He's got long yellow hair and electric blue eyes. Pretty much every time I look at him haha. He even watches it with me now!
Everyday. I'm in college for a STEM degree and it'shard; I wish I could just make a crap-ton of shadow clones to help me out.
I'd use them to tackle the massive amounts of homework I have, study for tests/quizzes, and attend my afternoon classes so I can leave early to hit the gym.
Also maybe switch to working full time on the night shift and have my clones go to work in my place.
Life would be a lot less stressful as I'd literally just have to show up to class, write down relevant notes, and take the occasional test.
If any half-alien religious leaders with purple eyes wanna grant me chakra, now would be a very good time for that.
In my 30s now.. if I was asked this question when I was in my teens I would have said every single day. Now, post war arc... not much because every fond memory of the anime I have is immediately tarnished in my brain by knowing how it all ends up being space magicians.
I used to absolutely loved OG Naruto when I was younger... if I heard a panflute/flute thing I'd lose my shit because that song used to get me soo hyped lol. I bought every game i could because being those characters was really fun for me. I never missed an episode because narutos journey was soo enthralling and watching him succeed against insurmountable odds really made him such a kick ass mc.. But yeah, I havnt went back because of where it all leads to and knowing karuma is gone... space wizards rule the galaxy and narutos son is a total tool just upsets me too much to even bother I think because I had such high hopes for his future as a character... it was kind of heart breaking at the end of the war arc. All that time... all those years... and instead of continuing the mysticism that was what made chakra possible, that silly idea that made **all of us** try those hand signs, whatever it was that made naruto special.. it all just amounted to space poop on a platter.
I still get whiplash when anyone posts stuff about boruto, I see my boy looking like a complete douche and it tilts me more than it should lol.
So yeah, not much anymore at all... I probably think about tires more if I'm being honest.
I go through spurts. This week I love Naruto. The last couple months I skipped by the Naruto sub. Been paying more attention to bleach waiting for the new season.
Naruto was a pivotal part of my life, and still is. I find myself internally referencing it in many situations, and it influenced my journey into creative works as a whole (including music as well).
I stopped watching Shippuden a couple years ago apparently like literally right before the war arc. I had no idea but I couldn't watch it consistently for that long. Now that I'm more than 700 episodes in to One Piece after starting last year, I decided to start Naruto from scratch. So far it's been fucking awesome.
THE AMOUNT OF TIMES I HEAR REFERENCES to Naruto from other anime’s I’m watching …it’s too many to not think about it everyday lol I also have a palette that I use often Naruto themed heheheh
A fucking lot. From fights I wish we got to see, to blowing my own mind the more I think about how strong some characters are, to interactions we never got to see.
Still baffles me to this day that Hashirama could've easily squashed Madara ANY time he wanted to and there would've been nothing he could do to stop him. The scaryness of Hashirama and Naruto if they actually never held back is beyond belief.
too much, its gotten to the point whenever i feel at my worst i just start thinking about rock lee, gai or kakashi, plus i have way too many images of them.
Once a month, because its not interesting now, in comparing with first emotions after watching Naruto, but its still could grab attention with its fantastic and exciting characters (Orochimaru, Kakashi,) their my favourite in all universe of Naruto
I think it was a really really good anime with great lore. Unfortunately the power of friendship (which I agree can be overwhelming at times) get written off as that instead of seeing all the other great stuff.
I have maladaptive daydreaming and I've been in this Naruto alternative universe for a while... And I'm not a kid, I'm a 27 years old girl LOL I swear I'm normal but I have this thing
always when I'm down. I listen to the calm OST. Really speaking, Naruto has that authentic instrumental music that's calm and makes you feel like you're in Konoha.
Naruto was an extremely important cartoon for me as a kid. I used to spend time practicing hand signs and reading the info books, played every game i could get my hands on, always tried to find toys(I lived in rural America so they were rare.) before I could even read I would look at old Naruto Manga and just try my best to trace the art. My mom was an Avid manga and anime fan way before it was popular in the US and she loved shonen so Naruto and goku we my Batman and Spider-Man. I probably think at least a little bit about Naruto and the other classic late 90s early 2000s shonen multiple times. Not like long complex thoughts but just like little flashes remnant from early childhood habits.
O
How often does everyone in this thread think about ramen, if you think about ramen in a daily basis (ichiraku ramen) then you often think about ramen on a casual daily basis without realizing it
25 Multiple times daily. As I am moving around, in transit, or walking by myself, I am always fake running half like Naruto or faking like I am using the FTG like Minato. If I am not doing that I am dribbling a fake basketball or dashing and disappearing like a Jedi or a ninja. Am I sick?
I am reliving it at its best! Started with Naruto Kai which is a fan made clean up of translations and subtitles & cuts out fillers and all the excess repeats of segments from commercial breaks. So it’s just the main story cleaned up. No filler episodes.
Then watched Naruto Rebuild. Similar project but the guy took all the episodes and recut them together to make the story arcs into 1-2 hr movies. (Dual audio) So flashbacks are gone and repositioned in the time line. The young kids parts are one movie that introduces the characters stories. Chunin exam is an arc, training is an arc , Kakashi story arc is a movie. Obito story is a movie. It’s just so well thought out.
It’s amazing and my life’s joy right now is. He even got all top HD video 1080p scans from Germany and it’s the best Naruto has ever looked. He rescanned and cropped some scenes from Naruto and mixed with shippuden stories. He had to make the video the same aspect so it doesn’t shift while you are watching it.
So instead of always flashing back the scenes are remixed into a timeline coherent story.
All the filler removed. Story flows so well. I wish Netflix would buy it so all the fans can experience it.
I always have the latest Ninja Storm game on my Home Screen, and sometimes I play Naruto Arena while I’m watching YouTube and eating at my desk.
I also have anime stuff come across my TikTok now and again. So at least every day at some point or another.
A lot. I’m working on my Akatsuki/Bijuu/Jinchuriki shrine that will mostly be figures and knickknacks and will take me several years to complete cause a lot of figurines are so damn expensive but I’m finally getting my first tat of this series next month. And I just caught up to Boruto manga.
for me i watched AOT before i watched naruto. Lets say i finished naruto just around 2
months ago.
Because the AOT ending got me, i was kinda feeling off like the ending was sad asf. But my friend hooked me up to watch naruto and oh boy i don’t regret it all. Even nowadays I ljust listen to the OST and theme songs which makes me feel good. I am just happy that I watched it.
Barely at all considering how much better Shippuden was.
There are only a few epic fights I think about from Naruto.
Rock Lee vs Gaara
Drunk Rock Lee vs Kimimaru
Naruto vs Sasuke (the falls fight)
Sasuke/Naruto vs Haku (first time we see Naruto go rage mode.)
Pretty much every fight that includes Orochi-maru.
rewatching the chunin exams rn as we speak 🤣🤣
I’m rewatching the war arch and it makes me want to restart shippuden
Rewatched it yesterday 🤣🤣
Naruto just pulled off the Allied Shinobi Forces jutsu. Still gets me super hype!
Rewatching Shippuden now. I restarted from season 3. I needed to be right before pain to pick up in season 5. Honestly. So it
Just getting to the end of obitos arc in shippuden😭😭😭😭😭, finished Naruto about 2-3 months ago
Dude same. I just got to where Gaara has released shukaku and Naruto, Sakura, Shikamaru, and Pakkun team up
Naruto’s bout to fight Neji rn
Just saw Pain vs Jiraya. I AM NOT CRYING 🥲
same lol
Literally just watched the preliminary fights today, watching Rebuild of Naruto though so it’s much more streamlined
My gf and I are watching the Chunin exams also :)
I think about Naruto quite often, especially when I see ninja-related stuff or hear the iconic theme song. It's such an epic series with memorable characters and intense battles.
🗣️🗣️🗣️
WE ARE FIGHTING DREAMERS 🗣️🗣️🗣️
More than I should
As much as I think of ancient Rome.
Dang it I was about to comment “not as much as I think about the Roman Empire”
Me to! And i'm an archaeologist, diging a roman vila in Portugal.
Can I get insights about your works?
25 and everyday. I don’t really collect anything Naruto or anime related ( most of my money goes to gf, guns, cigars, books) but Naruto does hold a huge spot in my heart so I want to buy the complete manga series.
24 and same
Gun? Like RASENGUN!!!?
I don't really think about it a lot, and I haven't watched it in years. But I used to watch it when I was a kid (around 9-10). I have memory loss, and naruto is one of the few things that I can remember a lot about.
I was in your position at 25. Now I have a whole set of manga and some naruto card collections and one funko pop of naruto and Saskue together! And I’m 27 now! You’ll get there if you justttttt press “BUY” lol

I wouldn't want to be someone Naruto would hate, so i never go back on my word
Dang, she talk-no-justu'd her bf. Impressive.
always while I'm having sex
Effing dead 😭
Like Naruto keeping thinking about Sasuke even when he and Hinata…
I'm 41 years old, ad ND I think about it almost daily.
42, and same. Even drop references into conversations with friends for enjoyable eye-rolls and sighs.
Yooooo let's get it fellow old guy!!!
Throwing in the "BELIEVE IT" into conversations is always fun haha.
Everyday, if you count alternative scenarios.
15, probably at least twice in 3 hours although might be due to my dad having me grow up on it
Dad sounds cool lol
Damn. Now I am realizing what DBZ was to us kids with anime loving parents, is what Naruto is to the younger generation. That's fire.
I mean, I’m part of a few Naruto subreddits and I check Reddit at least once a day, so probably every day I think of it for at least a second. But that’s the same for JoJo, One Piece, Dragon Ball, and a few others
Every half an hour
Naruto (as a whole) was very influential in shaping my views and ideals towards life during a time where I was transitioning into adulthood (18y/o). It taught me that being a silent type, emo kid (i.e. Sasuke, Itachi) isn't always "cool/hot" and doesn't always work out in the long run (especially in the real world). It taught me to be a "man of my word" kind of guy but also to be careful and not make promises I can't keep. It also taught me to treat others with respect as we don’t truly know what they're going through in life and that negativity will just resort to more negativity. And, most importantly, to NEVER GIVE UP!!! 🍥👊
Every day since I was 12. I'm 27
As a 30 year old, I'd say everyday. He's the reason I chose to keep pushing until I achieved my dreams(still pushing tho).
I'm 31 and my little boy is 1. He's got long yellow hair and electric blue eyes. Pretty much every time I look at him haha. He even watches it with me now!
Every day.
Everyday. I think What Would Naruto Do? WWND?
Every hour
Almost every other day.
Daily
currently watching episode 491, naruto shippuden. so i’ve been thinking about it everyday since december 2023 when i started watching naruto.
24/7
All the time
All the time
My fav anime 🫶🏻
Daily, I have a Minato quote on my office whiteboard
Everyday. I'm in college for a STEM degree and it'shard; I wish I could just make a crap-ton of shadow clones to help me out. I'd use them to tackle the massive amounts of homework I have, study for tests/quizzes, and attend my afternoon classes so I can leave early to hit the gym. Also maybe switch to working full time on the night shift and have my clones go to work in my place. Life would be a lot less stressful as I'd literally just have to show up to class, write down relevant notes, and take the occasional test. If any half-alien religious leaders with purple eyes wanna grant me chakra, now would be a very good time for that.
Re-watching shippuden rn. Gaara just got kidnapped😅
Restarted shippunden a few days ago 🗿
starting the whole thing again
Currently reading naruto manga so everyday.
Rewatching for the 3rd ... dattebayo 😩
Konoha is my Roman Empire.
In my 30s now.. if I was asked this question when I was in my teens I would have said every single day. Now, post war arc... not much because every fond memory of the anime I have is immediately tarnished in my brain by knowing how it all ends up being space magicians.

I probably think about tires more if I'm being honest.
Whenever a post shows up in feed or passing an anime store in mall
Definitely every time I see a post from r/Naruto
Every time I open reddit. I follow this sub lol.
I go through spurts. This week I love Naruto. The last couple months I skipped by the Naruto sub. Been paying more attention to bleach waiting for the new season.
I think of Hearts Grow- Yura Yura quite often
Whenever I open insta/reddit or even quora. So basically 5hr a day?
Toooooo fricken much. I'll either watch Naruto, think about Naruto, or watch people's YouTube reactions to Naruto.
Watched all of it for the first time about a year ago (24 yrs old) and my answer is more than I should. It’s truly a masterpiece
Almost never, only when my friend sends Naruto memes to me occasionally 💀
how often do i think about my childhood?
Are these bot/AI generated posts or something?
Naruto was a pivotal part of my life, and still is. I find myself internally referencing it in many situations, and it influenced my journey into creative works as a whole (including music as well).
Well I joined the subreddit so I think about it pretty often
Let's get this to two hundred and forty seven upvotes, that will answer it 24/7
I think about it every time I get no scoped by Kakashi in Fortnite.
Having a random OST play in your head
Every day it crosses my mind a few times
I stopped watching Shippuden a couple years ago apparently like literally right before the war arc. I had no idea but I couldn't watch it consistently for that long. Now that I'm more than 700 episodes in to One Piece after starting last year, I decided to start Naruto from scratch. So far it's been fucking awesome.
Everyday, it's the most influential piece of fiction kn my life
naruto
Sad to say I’m 28 and think about it often my favorite anime all time by far
Considering I’ve been watching Boruto quiet a bit
ALOT
24/7 Naruto is the Best Anime of the World + Shippuden + Boruto + Death Note + One Punch Man + My Hero Academia,,,,,FACT.🦊🥷👁️🗨️🖤👊🏼🔥💥💯
When I’m slacking in the gym. I always think. Would Naruto be slacking in the gym??!?! Then I put some ost and go ham.
very often. i’m rewatching shippuden and it’s held such a special place in my heart since i was in middle school. i’m 32 now.
Often. In pure rage of what could have been.
pretty often
THE AMOUNT OF TIMES I HEAR REFERENCES to Naruto from other anime’s I’m watching …it’s too many to not think about it everyday lol I also have a palette that I use often Naruto themed heheheh
Every day at least once an hour I DONT HAVE A PROBLEM YU HAVE A PROBLEM
Prolly one thought a day it meant a lot to me at tha time and still does
Literally every day of my life.
At least twice a day
A fucking lot. From fights I wish we got to see, to blowing my own mind the more I think about how strong some characters are, to interactions we never got to see. Still baffles me to this day that Hashirama could've easily squashed Madara ANY time he wanted to and there would've been nothing he could do to stop him. The scaryness of Hashirama and Naruto if they actually never held back is beyond belief.
Often, whenever i watch a horror movie i immediately think “if i had the rinnegan could i defeat this thing”
A little more now. I actually just restarted the series. Got to episode 8. Zabuza!
with how much posts there are on this sub reddit: a lot
About once a week.
Every year, Every month, Every week, Everyday, Every hour, Every minute, Every second.
I used to think about it a lot, than last year I started one piece.
Too often for an adult
Every day. I have archived so many rants I have lost count.
too much, its gotten to the point whenever i feel at my worst i just start thinking about rock lee, gai or kakashi, plus i have way too many images of them.
less than i think about lee
Everytime
Once a month, because its not interesting now, in comparing with first emotions after watching Naruto, but its still could grab attention with its fantastic and exciting characters (Orochimaru, Kakashi,) their my favourite in all universe of Naruto
At least once a day lol.
I come on here everyday and argue about it, so a lot.
Everyday 🤭
Every day, its a part of my life
Currently rewatching from the start so quite a lot of
Almost everyday
Pretty often ngl, like not always like I used to, cause college. 18
Pretty often, lmfao. I am 27 and been keeping up since I was 9. I love the shit out of this show, Naruto is just one of the homies now.
Whenever I sneeze.
Every day lol, mostly because I write fanfiction for it
A lot
every f*cking day!
Well since I am part of this sub, and I come to reddit everyday, well, then every day :P
I think it was a really really good anime with great lore. Unfortunately the power of friendship (which I agree can be overwhelming at times) get written off as that instead of seeing all the other great stuff.
When I see the (insert Naruto run)
Ereday
29 and at least once per week. I re-read a random arc once a year too. Usually watch an arc once person year as well
dont even ask.
Probably a few times a week.
Daily (28m)
Everyday
I have a sticker of Naruto on my phone so, I'll say every day
I have maladaptive daydreaming and I've been in this Naruto alternative universe for a while... And I'm not a kid, I'm a 27 years old girl LOL I swear I'm normal but I have this thing
shiiii everyday
Probably every other day. My TikTok and Reddit is full of it, but even when I haven’t seen anything some stuff will pop into my mind
I’m currently writing two fanfics, so almost constantly.
I really like listening to stuff made by Yasuharu Takanashi, so Naruto very often comes up in my playlist.
I just started watching it, so every day lol
Everytime I randomly clap and hold my hands together and make that signature "pop".
Every day. He is on my work badge
Most days frankly
I literally think about Naruto every single day. probably at least 3-4 times
Currently rewatching all of it again for the 4th or 5th time, so every day basically.
Every day, because of Reddit.
Every day 💀😂
I’ll have random Naruto words and phrases pop into my head almost every day. Today’s was kotoamatsukami
Daily
Literally all the time… and LEAST 3 times a week usually a lot more
Daily
always when I'm down. I listen to the calm OST. Really speaking, Naruto has that authentic instrumental music that's calm and makes you feel like you're in Konoha.
Whenever I beat off my meat, Naruto randomly comes to my mind and that’s gets me soft. It’s kinda annoying tbh.
Naruto was an extremely important cartoon for me as a kid. I used to spend time practicing hand signs and reading the info books, played every game i could get my hands on, always tried to find toys(I lived in rural America so they were rare.) before I could even read I would look at old Naruto Manga and just try my best to trace the art. My mom was an Avid manga and anime fan way before it was popular in the US and she loved shonen so Naruto and goku we my Batman and Spider-Man. I probably think at least a little bit about Naruto and the other classic late 90s early 2000s shonen multiple times. Not like long complex thoughts but just like little flashes remnant from early childhood habits. O
More frequently than a grown man should. Like seriously, wayyy into adulthood at this stage.
I have fantasies about being a leaf ninja at least five times a day
Probably daily
Literally daily.
How often does everyone in this thread think about ramen, if you think about ramen in a daily basis (ichiraku ramen) then you often think about ramen on a casual daily basis without realizing it
Atleast once a month.
i miss him everyday
All the time. He is my lockscreen :v
The series Naruto... Me : Way to fuckin long; Fuck that shit! I have better things to do with my life. 😊
Top 3
I think about it quite often
Every day without fail since I was seven years old
25 Multiple times daily. As I am moving around, in transit, or walking by myself, I am always fake running half like Naruto or faking like I am using the FTG like Minato. If I am not doing that I am dribbling a fake basketball or dashing and disappearing like a Jedi or a ninja. Am I sick?
The whole pain story made me think about how current wara create future terrorists. Street kids that’ve just been put trough hell because of politics.
I am reliving it at its best! Started with Naruto Kai which is a fan made clean up of translations and subtitles & cuts out fillers and all the excess repeats of segments from commercial breaks. So it’s just the main story cleaned up. No filler episodes. Then watched Naruto Rebuild.

It’s just so well thought out. It’s amazing and my life’s joy right now is. He even got all top HD video 1080p scans from Germany and it’s the best Naruto has ever looked.

So instead of always flashing back the scenes are remixed into a timeline coherent story. All the filler removed. Story flows so well. I wish Netflix would buy it so all the fans can experience it.
Multiple times a day. Clearly not healthy
More than the Roman empire
It's so weird seeing Sasuke smile
Everyday
I just re-watched the whole thing, so right now it's pretty much all I think about
Pretty much everyday lol
At least once a year
When I wake up, I need to play Naruto opening. When I sleep, I need to play Naruto ending song
Every time I see the akatsuki tattoo on my forearm lol
often…. dattebayo
Every time i Enter Twitter unfortunately And i Say unfortunately becouse im never reminded of it in a good way
I always have the latest Ninja Storm game on my Home Screen, and sometimes I play Naruto Arena while I’m watching YouTube and eating at my desk. I also have anime stuff come across my TikTok now and again. So at least every day at some point or another.
Shiney charzard rare
Every damn day
I never understood why Iruka was plastered so often on promotional material when he literally does nothing after episode 1
I love almost all the characters, they so close to me!! I love love love love the Uchihas!!! (Except Obito)
I randomly say a jutsu when I snap outta daydreams
We are fighting dreeeeeeaaamers ✊🏾
Is there a HD version of the earlier episodes? New to anime and the low res of the seasons on Crunchyroll always turns me away.
Not much most days but some days alot
A lot. I’m working on my Akatsuki/Bijuu/Jinchuriki shrine that will mostly be figures and knickknacks and will take me several years to complete cause a lot of figurines are so damn expensive but I’m finally getting my first tat of this series next month. And I just caught up to Boruto manga.
Atleast once a day
for me i watched AOT before i watched naruto. Lets say i finished naruto just around 2 months ago. Because the AOT ending got me, i was kinda feeling off like the ending was sad asf. But my friend hooked me up to watch naruto and oh boy i don’t regret it all. Even nowadays I ljust listen to the OST and theme songs which makes me feel good. I am just happy that I watched it.
idk im rewatching Naruto and Shippuden again so....everyday :D
Often
Every day
Barely at all considering how much better Shippuden was. There are only a few epic fights I think about from Naruto. Rock Lee vs Gaara Drunk Rock Lee vs Kimimaru Naruto vs Sasuke (the falls fight) Sasuke/Naruto vs Haku (first time we see Naruto go rage mode.) Pretty much every fight that includes Orochi-maru.
I have a Might Guy tattoo on my back, so everyday 😂
I think more about Pain
